The Search Engine spiders love reading your web page. The problem is they are not as friendly to code. They love plain text!
This handy little tool will help you find out how much code vs how much (spider readable) text your page has.
The code it is referring to will be HTML, images, flash, CSS, & JavaScript.

My Code to Text is 37.86%.

You can find many of the code to text ratio checkers, here is the one that seemed to be the most consistant. Code to Text Tool

I read allot of articles of what a good Code to Text Ratio would be & they all had a different scale. Obviously no one has the magic number. The lowest percentage that was considered GOOD was – 35% although some stated that you should be in the 80-90% range.

Once you have loaded the URL of your site in this handy tool and gotten your number, take a look and see what the tool and spiders see.

To see where all your code is on your page – go to the tool bar at the top & hit VIEW – in the drop down box click VIEW SOURCE – this will give you a way to see everything the spiders do.

Most of the code you will see is your skin or layout.
When trying to get a better code to text ratio – cut out any tags your page may have that are not needed.
Make sure you have valued code.

I would love to give some exacts but, this should get you’re your interest peaked.
